Tyler Krypell, Bryan Krypell and Charles Krypell

Sprawling Donoho’s Jewellers in The Woodlands hosted a pair of personal appearances by two famed jewelry designers. Patrons perused the selection of new feminine pieces by Penny Preville while noshing on mini buttermilk biscuits with roasted-tomato hummus and prosciutto, courtesy of Wicked Whisk catering. Preville scheduled one-on-one consults with guests who wanted to create custom pieces. ... Just two days later, Charles Krypell stopped by the store with exquisite, rare and colorful diamonds. He offered to customize ring settings for shoppers while they enjoyed bites like strawberry-jam brownies with chocolate ganache. –Photos by Anthony A. Hynes and Daniel Ortiz
